We were both young when I first saw youI close my eyes and the flashback startsI’m standing thereOn a balcony, in summer airSee the lights, see the party, the ball gownsSee you make your way through the crowdAnd say, “Hello”Little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebblesAnd my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet”And I was crying on the staircaseBegging you, “Please don’t go”And I said
“Romeo take me somewhere we can be aloneI’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is runYou’ll be the prince, and I’ll be the princessIt’s a love story, baby, just say yes”
So I sneak out to the garden to see youWe keep quiet ’cause we’re dead if they knewSo close your eyesEscape this town for a little while, oh, oh
‘Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letterAnd my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet”But you were everything to meI was begging you, “Please don’t go”And I said
“Romeo, take me somewhere we can be aloneI’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is runYou’ll be the prince, and I’ll be the princessIt’s a love story, baby, just say yes”
Romeo, save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feelThis love is difficult, but it’s realDon’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this messIt’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Oh, oh-oh
I got tired of waitingWondering if you were ever coming aroundMy faith in you was fadingWhen I met you on the outskirts of townAnd I said
“Romeo, save me, I’ve been feeling so aloneI keep waiting for you, but you never comeIs this in my head? I don’t know what to think”He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ringAnd said
“Marry me, Juliet, you’ll never have to be aloneI love you, and that’s all I really knowI talked to your dad, go pick out a white dressIt’s a love story, baby, just say yes”
Oh, oh-ohOh, oh-oh, oh
“Romeo take me somewhere we can be aloneI’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is runYou’ll be the prince, and I’ll be the princessIt’s a love story, baby, just say yes”
